Very cool experience visiting. Due to being out of the way from the main downtown areas the church…read morewas not very crowded. The architecture, exterior and interior were both incredible and plenty of chairs to sit in to take it all in.

It's off-the-beaten-path and a trek to get there being so north from central city, but it's worth…read morethe investment. Grundtvigs Kirke is one of the only examples of expressionist architecture in churches around the world. From the moment you turn the corner to see the church, it's stunning. It seems other worldly. It's open throughout the year for visitors. When my friend and I went in at 3 p.m. on a Thursday in October 2021, the doors were open and an organist was playing. A few tourists filled the seats snapping photos of the unique design. If you love design and architecture, definitely go here. Admission is free and they sell a few items inside to help fund the church's Christmas charity work.

It's a fun little tower to climb. Can't remember the entry cost, but pro tip: if you intend to see…read moremany sites here, get the Copenhagen card which applies to this church. Climb difficulty depends on your fitness level but imo it's easy. Steep inside, but easy. The outside is a little scary off you're afraid of heights, and it narrows as you get closer to the top. The spiral stairs part is outside the church. Plus you get the chance to meander through the streets on your way here.

I hyped everyone up for the Church of Our Saviour. My kids know it as the Tower of Doom…read more First up, it is a church that is still in use, but it also gives you a breathtaking view of the city. It's included on the Copenhagen Card but you still need to book your entry time online to avoid crowds. They do not allow walk ins - or at least they didn't in July. They also close the climb up if there's rain or is excessively windy for safety reasons. I took my friend and my two kids, ages 4 and 8. They did not want to go. I gave them a choice to stay at the front desk and they ended up making it up, since they didn't want to be left behind. You can store your larger bags (like backpacks) by the front desk at your own discretion. You should. It gets a bit cramped. I kept my purse on me though. As opposed to the Ruundetarn, there are a lot of steps. Roughly 400 up and another 400 down. It's not terrible but the closer you are to the top, it can get narrow and cramped. If you're tall, watch your head. It also gets to the point that groups going in one direction need to stop to let the ones coming down go just so you have room to go up. The last set of stairs to get outside is more like a ladder and you really feel it when you're getting ready to get back inside the church and you look down to see how steep and narrow those steps are. It is a beautiful view though! Your heart is pumping from the climb up, the wind hampers your breathing a bit... I heard a number of people breathing quite hard - but you're there! You go up further until you can go no more. When I went, there was a lady who was seemingly stuck at the very top and didn't budge from it, but no matter. (She spoke to us... just didn't let go.) Both of my kids made it up too despite their reservations. It took time to get them moving at first but they did it! My eldest got down without issues but going down those ladder steps, I just held my 4 year old in one arm and took us both down 2 flights before I let him down. But yes, younger kids can do it! (They got ice cream afterwards.) If you have a fear of heights or claustrophobia.... You can definitely turn around if you really can't do it. I couldn't stare down at the ground for long while at the very top (it is a bit high) but I didn't feel unsafe while up there. That was definitely an experience to remember! A bit of a thrill at the very end, haha.

A medieval church of the 1100s! As an American living in California, you dont see things much older…read morethan the 1950s! Sitting on top of the hill Sollerod Bakke, I walked here from the Holte train station making my way to Sollerod Kro, the old in turned find dining restaurant which used to house folks that came to this church. Situated next to a pond and a great green area ir was originally built from limestone. Over the years it has expanded in the 1400's, 1700s, and most recently 1993. That's just crazy to think about.

You might think the Norwegian church is only for Norwegians? You couldn't be more wrong…read more This is a place where everyone are welcome. From the German business student to the Danish agronomist. But to be honest, most people who "hang out" here are Norwegians. Might be because it's kinda nice to speak the mother tongue with fellow speakers once in a while. Or it could be because of the peculiar (but awesome) Norwegian goodies you can buy at the little shop here. Here you can get everything from Norwegian chocolate to the very special brown goat cheese. What I like about this place are many things. First and foremost, it's always a friendly and open place where you can eat as many waffles as you'd like (best waffles in Cph) for 15 kr each. Secondly, there's a student dinner (Norwegian specialty) and quiz once a month, which is always nice. Thirdly, they have a study/reading room that hardly anyone uses, so there's a lot of space! There are also so many other activities here for people of all ages and backgrounds. Check it out yourself and I'm sure you won't be disappointed!

This is another part of the Christiansborg castle dating back to 1826 that has been wonderfully…read morepreserved and is still in use today. This part of the castle is free to visitors during business hours and while it's not particularly large or grand, it is beautifully constructed. The inspiration by The Pantheon can easily be seen by the exquisite marbling throughout the church, but in particular by the marble pillars at the entrance resembling Greek temples. The inside has warmer tones with stucco walls, elegant electric candles, light wooden pews, and exquisite pillars and arches. While we only took a brief look around, we were in awe at the refined subtleties and sophistication of the church's design. The atmosphere was quiet, peaceful, and reflective. This church is still the site of all major royal events including baptisms, weddings, and anniversaries. It's definitely worth a quick look if you're at the castle, especially considering it's one of the only areas freely open to the public.
